Chicken Lettuce Wraps
So back when we used to go to PF Changs (aka before Melody), I loved ordering the chicken lettuce wraps. They are fairly healthy (in comparison to the other menu items), and they taste amazing. Brad hates them though. Well one week when he was out of town for work, I finally decided to try and make them at home for dinner. They were great! They were also much easier to make than I expected. I may try making them again and freezing them for lunches. I have made some before, but they weren’t near as good as these.
Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound of ground chicken
2 cloves of minced garlic
1 diced onion
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons of soy sauce
1 tablespoon of rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon of grated ginger
8 ounce can of water chestnuts, drained and diced
2 green onions, sliced
salt and pepper to taste
1 head of butter lettuce
Instructions
1. Heat olive oil in a saucepan. Add chicken and cook until brown. Drain fat.
2. Stir in garlic, onion, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and ginger until onions are translucent.
3. Stir in chestnuts and green onions until tender. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Serve by spooning mixture into the center of the lettuce.
